Dude...no problem!:metal:
Honestly, the truck does sit lower than this pic actually shows but not low enough for me and actually dropped spindles and blocks for the rear are coming in a week!! That will actually put the front half an inch over the tire in the front and the rear will sit right at the top of the tire.

Believe me, I photoshop every single pic I take. I have every one of them saved as normal and then a second photoshopped with it dropped! Lol. Some sitting like it "should" sit once the components are on and others slammed as if air ride. I was contemplating air ride forever but just don't want to sink the $$$ in it at this point.

Here are some examples of both...First is with air and the second is hopefully where it will actually be??

I hear you. Mine will never be as low as shot #2 or as high as #3. Gotta make her work some in the garden/yard. And, she's not a 4 x 4......and I'm too short and old....:waah:

Some of the guys and gals on the Forum have it right...We all need more than one truck!!! :lol::lol::lol:

For me, I already have too much in RAT. I'm a one-truck-guy. But I love 'em all.

Sorry for the delay. I've been working on my truck every spare minute I have trying to get on the road. I'm painting it a charcoal metallic color. In my build thread, pg 10 post 244, I have the interior and firewall painted. I painted the insides of the doors last night. I'll try and update my build this weekend.

Watch out for pot holes! Did this on the Power Tour.... actually on the way down before it even started. Held air and ran the entire trip like this with no issues.

I'm not really a fan of the big wheels, plus they are all starting to look alike. Kinda like those polished torq thrusts everyone and their mother runs. But yours are actually pretty cool. I like the outside the box thinking on these.
Nice job!

I recently replaced them with a set of Foose Legend 20x8.5 & 20x10 and 255/50 & 305/50's. the front tires sit about .400 more inboard and no rubbing so far. I'll take a pic when the weather cleas up.:metal:

Thanks guys,
Not a big chrome guy for this truck. It's a pro touring truck, so I thought it needed a pro touring wheel
